   Summary

   Alternative universe
   Dual!POV
   .
   Grace really loves his job, he loves science, he loves experimenting…maybe in all aspects of his life.
   And suddenly a new chance for experiments opens up to him.
   .
   He shares a lab with his new colleague, tan, bold, tall engineer, enjoying their time and work together maybe a little too much when he finds himself thinking about him more often than not - observing the way he works, arms flexing in tight t-shirts as he adjusts his glasses cause, as Grace found out, he’s surprisingly poor sighted and yet he’s a 1.90 testosterone teaser and dry sarcasm.

   Grace wakes up this morning feeling especially frustrated and needy…maybe Rocky would finally notice him and stop acting like a prick.
